The short sees Stewie and Brian travel inside Peter’s body to explain how vaccines work.

The Family Guy team has launched a PSA aimed at highlighting the benefits of getting a Covid vaccination.

The short sees Stewie and Brian travel inside Peter’s body to explain how vaccines work, and encourages viewers to visit GetVaccineAnswers.org.

Explaining why he chose to do the video, Family Guy creator Seth McFarlane said, somewhat sarcastically: “I looked around and saw everyone else at Fox Corp doing their part to get the good science out there, being responsible with their platforms, and looking down the barrel of that kind of peer pressure I said “Gosh, we’ve got to do something too.”

Check out the video below:
